Press

  • “Playing complex lines in perfect unison and taking truly superb solos, these two are no ordinary talents… the way it makes you feel the timeless universality of ‘jazz’ is truly fascinating.”
    Koji Murai, Jazz Hihyo (Japan)
  • “From ‘Not Friends,’ where they trade sounds with a delicate sense of distance, to a haunting update of Elliott Smith’s ‘Everything Means Nothing to Me,’ the album overflows with fresh-sounding performances.”
    Jazz Life (Japan)
  • “Mr. Preminger designs a different kind of sound for each note, an individual destiny and story.”
    Ben Ratliff, The New York Times
